2025/26 Tim Iroegbunam

[neil999]

In what way was he messy? He was our best midfielder on the ball.

Final ball

Absolute banker for a booking with the bookies.

Played really well today though Tim. Best I’ve ever seen from him.

Not as flashy or eye catching as some of the early Dyche games that had people going way OTT but just a really solid premier league centre mid performance. Baleba struggled to get hold of it in there today.

Really needs to learn when to give the ball early though. If he carries on like that we may actually have a similar profile to Gana.

He just needs to act more quickly on the ball and he’d be much better. Did ok today I thought.

Unfortunately that’s the pace of the premier league needs to adapt and quick if he’s playing regular.

 

[RomanReigns]

Any news on the injury?

Thing is he should already know so you do have to wonder. Certain positions on the pitch you just can’t dwell on it. Like you say in the Prem you’ve got seconds.

I didnt get Moyes playing him ahead of Armstrong but saw it today.

This lad is raw but there was loads to like about his performance today.

He has áreas to work on but with minutes, he will only improve.

They had a really good midfield and I thought he looked better than Baleba, who is a fine player.

Good on ya, Tim.

When you watch him up close - you can tell that he is a good footballer and works hard. Hes just still a bit too naive at times..

 

[Ivo]

He's got so much potential it's unbelievable. He can literally glide past players like they're not there, and that takes a certain level of talent. We're not talking u21s or north west counties, this is the prem. His decision making needs to come on a bit but he's got all the natural ingredients to be a top player.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

Why? His ability to make tackles and put in blocks has been demonstrated on plenty of occasions, plus he has the height to operate as a centre-back. He would not be my first choice in the position but I am confident he would be able to do a job if required.

Centre back is a completely specialist position. He would get eaten alive by even a division two level striker. You're completely underestimating how much know how is required to play in different positions.

 

[arch stanton]

was really good today, hopefully he was just knackered when he went off.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

Final ball

That's true. But if he was finding the final ball consistently he would be an elite player. Hopefully that will come because he has the tools. In terms of physicality and touch he's top level. He choses the right final ball but he lack a bit of conviction with the final pass/shot. I think our fan base really underrate how talented he is.

I don't recall him dwelling on the ball a lot at all.

He’s got the absolute perfect manager to bring him on. Moyes will turn him in time into a very good midfielder.

 

[dion]

Deserves a bit of credit and patience from the fans today. He was snappy and effective. Seems like a humble kid, let's get behind him.

 

[MisterJ]

Looked good when he tried running at the defence, probably should have scored
